Extreme Almightiest Young Master-Chapter 2152 - 2134: The Origin of the Relic Mansion
"Listening to the Boss is never wrong."
"We both belong to a Prominent Family, so arranging a residence for you will be easy."
Qin Kun and Wu Shan chimed in, initially puzzled by the situation, but after Fang Yan’s explanation, they immediately smiled. This method of handling was indeed the best approach, as settling the mother and daughter was a very simple task for them.
Upon hearing Fang Yan and Qin Kun’s words, Wan’er and her mother immediately smiled, realizing they had nothing to worry about. If things proceeded as Fang Yan and the others suggested, it would be the situation they most desired.
Thinking of this, Duanmu Xiu also smiled and said to Fang Yan, "In that case, my daughter and I will intrude upon you..."
In fact, she didn’t want to trouble Fang Yan and the others, having already owed her life to them. But for Wan’er’s sake, she had no choice. After all, she would die sooner or later, and if Wan’er had no self-defense skills, what would happen to her when Duanmu Xiu was gone?
"It’s no trouble at all. For us, it’s just a small matter," Fang Yan waved his hand, indicating it really wasn’t a problem.
"Yes, absolutely no trouble! And I find Wan’er quite adorable; she could be my sister. In Divine City, no one would dare harass her," Qin Kun laughed, delighted about gaining such a beautiful sister.
"The Wu Family can provide protection too. If you want, you can stay at the Wu Family. My sister longs for a sibling and would certainly like Wan’er," Wu Shan added, expressing his fondness for Wan’er and extending the family’s invitation.
Upon hearing the three’s words, Wan’er and her mother were finally at ease, exchanging glances and nodding almost simultaneously. Although they were strangers to Fang Yan, the mother and daughter recognized them as benefactors, leaving no room for worry.
"Thank you so much," Duanmu Xiu bowed to the three, genuinely grateful.
Fang Yan raised his hand to lift Duanmu Xiu, saying, "It’s settled then. But since the distance to Divine Sword Sect is far, pack up a little and we’ll take the Cloud Travel Tower together."
"Thank you!" Duanmu Xiu nodded at Fang Yan’s arrangement and proceeded to pack with Wan’er, taking only a few fine clothes and some things Wan’er loved.
Afterward, they left the dim small house and headed toward Wanyuan City’s Cloud Travel Tower.
As they approached the tower, several people dashed toward them, sweating and anxiously discussing while waiting for the cloud travel.
"What do we do now?!"
"Indeed, why did Zhenglie and the others suddenly faint? Why can’t they be awakened?!"
"This is very strange, several Zhang Family members like this all at once, what should we do about it?!"
...
The group was visibly anxious, clearly seeking help elsewhere through the Cloud Travel Tower, perhaps too nervous to keep these matters confidential, or maybe they hadn’t thought that far...
Their words stunned Wan’er and her mother, who immediately looked at Fang Yan, knowing very well what was going on. Surely, this was Fang Yan’s doing, filling their hearts with immense gratitude.
Without Fang Yan’s intervention, they wouldn’t have escaped Zhang Zhenglie’s plot, potentially facing a grim fate. But everything changed thanks to Fang Yan, who truly transformed their lives.
Both mother and daughter’s eyes welled up as they pondered why Fang Yan would help them, two unfortunate strangers. Yet, they would always remember Fang Yan’s great kindness...
Fang Yan noticed their change, smiling faintly at them, gesturing without words that these matters didn’t concern him.
At this moment, Qin Kun and Wu Shan realized what was happening, recognizing Zhang Zhenglie’s name from Duanmu Xiu’s stories. They knew Fang Yan had dealt with him, though unaware he’d done so flawlessly, leaving Zhang Zhenglie in a feigned death. What a brilliant method—no killing involved yet utterly effective. They doubted anyone could break Fang Yan’s technique; Zhang Zhenglie and his group were destined to live this way forever.
Thinking of this, Qin Kun and Wu Shan both smiled, revitalized by Fang Yan’s skill. Reverence filled their hearts as they contemplated learning such techniques themselves—a potential method of making enemies suffer. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶
Just then, the awaited cloud travel returned, and without hesitation, everyone boarded...
Half a day later, after leaving the Cloud Travel Tower, they parted ways. Fang Yan returned to Divine Sword Sect while Qin Kun and Wu Shan handled arrangements for Wan’er and her mother.
Upon returning to Divine Sword Sect, Fang Yan immediately sensed something amiss. The sect felt like it was anticipating an enemy attack. Bypassing the customary greetings to fellow disciples, he went straight to Sect Master Jue Tiannan.
"What’s going on? Has something happened?" Fang Yan asked, noticing Jue Tiannan deep in thought.
"Fang Yan!" Jue Tiannan, startled by Fang Yan’s voice, exclaimed. He was utterly surprised that Fang Yan appeared without his sensing it, contemplating the matter. Upon closer glance, he was shocked by what he saw!
"You... you’ve reached the Earth Immortal Realm!" Stunned, Jue Tiannan almost dropped his jaw, unable to believe the sight. Fang Yan had returned as an Earth Immortal, leaving him at a loss. He had been thirty-two when breaking through, but Fang Yan was just over twenty—this disparity deeply unsettled him.
However, more than anything, Jue Tiannan was elated. As Sect Master, Fang Yan’s extraordinary talent during cultivation excited him, benefiting the sect immensely. This remarkable genius in Divine Sword Sect made him immensely proud, yet baffled at Fang Yan’s swift breakthrough, realizing only Earth Immortals know how difficult the bottleneck was. Yet Fang Yan achieved this at such a young age—a feat beyond belief.
"One step led to breakthrough," Fang Yan casually replied, understanding Jue Tiannan’s shock, then asked, "What’s happening? Why does the sect seem unsettled?"
Hearing Fang Yan’s query, Jue Tiannan recalled his earlier words and replied, "It’s all due to your exploration of that ancient mansion. You might not know this, but the mansion was no ordinary site, appearing once every ten thousand years. After entering, it suddenly exploded, leveling the Xuanyang Lake area. Now all of Holy Soul Continent is searching for those who entered it..."
"We later learned the mansion appears every ten thousand years, never allowing entry until your visit caused its disappearance, probably never to appear again. Imagine now how Holy Soul Continent is reacting?"
Surprised, Fang Yan asked, "Once every ten thousand years? Why didn’t Divine Sword Sect know about the mansion’s origin?"
Curious about this, Fang Yan wondered why Divine Sword Sect lacked information on the mansion, thinking he would have taken alternative measures if informed.
"Divine Sword Sect has been established for just over seven thousand years without records on this. Only Holy Soul Sect, with its tens of thousands of years of history, knew from there," Jue Tiannan explained. "Now, Holy Soul Sect is searching for those who entered, and Divine Sword Sect fell under suspicion. Though we’ve fended them off, I’m worried they might still suspect you three."
What absurdity!
Fang Yan, hearing Jue Tiannan’s account, felt speechless. Unable to explore the mansion, yet punished for entering—how ridiculous. But Holy Soul Sect’s dominance, like M Country’s tyranny on Earth, allowed them free rein with might.
Suddenly struck by an idea, Fang Yan asked, "Sect Master, how did you handle this?"
"The sect’s official stance is that you three went searching for Spiritual Medicine Heavenly Wood Essence in Heaven Demon Forest. If they investigate, it won’t likely yield results, given the forest’s vastness and Demon Venerable’s presence, preventing Holy Soul Sect from rash actions," Jue Tiannan replied, noting Fang Yan’s thoughtfulness.
Hearing this, Fang Yan laughed, knowing the rarity of Heavenly Wood Essence in Heaven Demon Forest made for a convincing cover. Exploration might span months without encountering it, a sound excuse indeed.
